• In a medium pot over medium heat warm oil and add in green onions.
• Cook onions until softened and slightly brown, about 6 minutes.
• Add in garlic and ginger, then cook an additional 30 seconds before adding remaining sauce ingredients.
• Bring sauce to a simmer and lower heat to medium low.
• Simmer for 5 minutes. Remove pot from heat and let cool to thicken.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Place on a greased baking sheet.
• Bake for 30 minutes.
• After 30 minutes, remove pan from oven and generously brush ginger barbecue sauce over chicken before returning to the oven for 10 more minutes or until chicken is juices run clear and barbecue sauce is sticky.
• Internal temperature of the chicken should be 165º Fahrenheit.
• Slice and serve over rice, veggies or on a salad.
• Top the chicken with sesame seeds and green onions if desired.

ASIAN GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place the soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, orange juice, sweet chili sauce, chili-garlic sauce, garlic, and curry powder in a large plastic zipper bag. Seal and knead the bag with your fingers to mix all the ingredients and dissolve the sugar. Place the chicken thighs into the marinade, squeeze out the air from the bag, zip the bag closed, and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-low heat; lightly oil the grate.
• Remove the chicken from the bag, pour the excess marinade into a small saucepan, and bring to a full boil for about 1 minute to sterilize the marinade.
• Grill the chicken thighs until they are no longer pink in the middle and show grill marks, about 25 minutes, basting them generously with the sterilized marinade as they grill.

ASIAN GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Whisk the vinegar, honey, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, chili garlic sauce, garlic, and salt in a bowl until smooth. Pour half the marinade into a large plastic zipper bag; retain the other half of the sauce. Place the chicken thighs into the bag containing marinade, squeeze all the air out of the bag, and seal. Shake a few times to coat chicken; refrigerate for 1 hour, turning bag once or twice.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Pour the other half of the marinade into a saucepan over medium heat, bring to a boil, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, to thicken sauce. Remove the chicken from the bag; discard used marinade. Place chicken thighs into a 9x13-inch baking dish, and brush with 1/3 of the thickened marinade from the saucepan.
• Bake 30 minutes, basting one more time after 10 minutes; an instant-read thermometer inserted into a chicken thigh should read 165 degrees F (75 degrees C). Let stand for 5 or 10 minutes; meanwhile, bring remaining marinade back to a boil for 1 or 2 minutes, and serve chicken with marinade. Sprinkle with green onions.

BBQ CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• Whisk together ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and water. Reserve 1/3 cup and set aside.
• Combine ketchup mixture and chicken in a gallon-size slider bag or large bowl; refrigerate and marinate for at least 1 hour to overnight, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the chicken from the marinade; discard marinade.
• Make drainage holes in a sheet of Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil with a grilling fork. Place foil sheet on grill grate with non-stick (dull) side facing up. Immediately place chicken on foil.
• Add chicken to grill and cook, flipping once and basting with reserved 1/3 cup marinade until cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes on each side.
• Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.

ASIAN BBQ CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.

• Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Place chicken on foil-covered baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.

OVEN-BARBECUED ASIAN CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Coat a 9-by-13-inch (or similar-size) baking dish with cooking spray.
• Thinly slice 1/4 cup scallion greens; set aside.
• Mince the scallion whites. Whisk the scallion whites, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, hot sauce, five-spice powder, and honey (OPTIONAL) in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Arrange the chicken in an even layer in the prepared baking dish, meatier-side down. Pour any remaining sauce from the bowl over the chicken.
• Bake, turning once halfway so the meatier side is up, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part without touching bone registers 165°F, about 1 hour.
• Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and top with any remaining sauce from the baking dish.
• Sprinkle with sesame seeds and the reserved scallion greens.
• TIPS:.
• Chinese five-spice powder is a blend of cinnamon, cloves, fennel seed, star anise and Szechuan peppercorns. Look for it in the spice section of the supermarket, or with other Asian ingredients.
• Sesame seeds can be toasted in a small dry skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
